More Filming in DUMBO

The Mayor's Office of Film and Television and the "Made in NY" folks must be very happy because there is MORE production in NYC!

DUMBO is seeing tons of Hollywood action all this week.

The NO PARKING sign above is from The Brownstoner and states that "Morning Glory" , a comedy with a star-studded cast including Rachel McAdams (The Notebook, Wedding Crashers), Patrick Wilson (Watchmen, Little Children), Harrison Ford, Jeff Goldblum, Diane Keaton and 50 Cent, will be shooting in DUMBO today and tomorrow 8/5 and 8/6.

What's it about? The brief synopsis according to IMDb reads, "A hotshot television producer is set the challenge of reviving a struggling morning show program, despite the constant feuding of its high-profile anchors." NYC sounds like the perfect canvass in which to paint this picture.

The photo above is from the DUMBO NYC website. This was taken yesterday outside of the PowerHouse Arena on Main St. in DUMBO where Spike Lee was directing a commercial for Rocawear starring Jay-Z. For more pics of Spike mid-shoot, click HERE

As exciting as this may be for our city and it's economy, it makes for some angry Brooklyn auto owners! With NO PARKING signs abundant, where do we put our cars?!?
